Texas AG Ken Paxton to investigate UNT for not disciplining students accused of celebrating Charlie Kirk killing


Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton says his office will investigate the University of North Texas after the school ignored his earlier call to investigate and discipline students who a classmate accused of celebrating the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

In a letter Thursday, Paxton also accused the university of failing to investigate what he called ongoing “radical leftist activity” on campus, including a student who allegedly approached a table set up by Turning Point USA, the organization Kirk founded, and shredded the group’s materials. He also condemned posters from student groups allegedly promoting “militant” movements and threats against the student who reported her classmates for celebrating Kirk’s shooting.
